Hes just been in more big films and had higher profile roles. I mean you can't get much more high profile than Superman. He has also just been around longer. Basically he will have much more name recognition.
Yep, it's really not hard to come across people ranting about her and her 'SJW-ness' in pop culture circles, it's actually hard to avoid. Heck, the amount of Star Wars fans that rant about her is unbelievable and she's not even in that franchise.
Just to be clear - I am not one of the people who posted snarky comments about her.
Captain Marvel made over a billion dollars in the box office. Just because you don't know who she is does not mean the general public wouldn't, she plays a major character in the biggest franchise going right now. And nerd culture have got their knickers in a twist so much over her that it's really really doubtful that Era of all places doesn't know about her.
A forum with a bunch of nerds who don't know an actress of a very high profile, billion dollar earning, super hero Marvel film, who was also constantly harassed by nerds for being a woman and asking for more diversity in Hollywood?
That thread was one of the more depressing reads on this site. Just say you want your cake and eat it too, it's better than performing mental gymnastics how it's OK to buy what you want because you know X is bad in my mind.It's a pity that the poll is no longer visible, but in the thread below, most people believe that it's possible to buy and support games/devs while being critical of negative aspects of the game/company. Of course, this is mostly to enjoy something they're looking forward to guilt-free while not directly endorsing any bigoted views and admittedly it's something I struggle with myself. It's much easier to ignore games that you never really had an interest in in the first place, such as THQ Nordic games but in the case of Cyberpunk/HP RPG people would prefer to turn a blind eye. There's definitely a subsection of users who are clearly just trying to hurt LGBT members by just ignoring any negative connotations surrounding these games and going "Day 1!!!" though.
Is it possible to buy and enjoy videos games while still being critical of the developers/publishers/IP holder?
So I've been seeing a lot of posts and threads lately discussing the abhorrent behaviour of certain video game companies, from abuse, to misconduct, to harassment, to crunch, to exploitative and predatory practices, to bigoted views held by people working on or associated with certain projects...www.resetera.com
The whole Brie Larson thing is just something I can't quite understand. It had me second-guessing at times whether I should dislike her just because everyone else did, but I just don't get it and never saw a proper reason
Ya know I saw that thread and I didn't click it because in my head I thought
Every time i see the words "I can separate the art from the artist" a piece of Resetera dies. I hate it so much.
She's a strong and confident woman not giving a damn about them as she enjoys 'their' hobby. That's about as much reason as I've found at least.
I'm in the same boat. I don't have much to add but these threads help with trying to understand these issues.
already patched? amazing :)
Yeah, there was no need to reply to the criticism in such a way, language divide or not. I'm really sad about this
